Just because of an admirable collection of those most active and heard anti-vaxxers are completely taken apart in that link :)
On the lady who owns the NVIC site:
This experience may have been what led Ms. Fisher to have her two younger children vaccinated. It is also noteworthy that her son Chris, who was allegedly injured by DPT immunization, is still well enough to attend college.
Scheibner is addressed there too.
Just some great resources that I've found recently thanks to the anti-quackery ring.
So, where's Rouser2 lately?

He's holed up in his trailer investigating the Mars landing hoax.

It's unfortunate that the average non-abstracting parent will not read white papers and well-researched journal articles. They'd prefer their naturopaths and homeopaths and accupuncturists and faith healers to tell them what's what. They accept without reservation the assertions of the charlatans that "scientific studies show that vaccine x causes y disease." I've confronted parents about refusing vaccines for their children, and they've admitted they have not examined the evidence con vaccines, but they continue, stubbornly, to insist on their unfounded beliefs.

Here is something interesting... it is about the "R" part of the MMR, the part most people don't think about: rubella.
It is now about 40 years since the last rubella outbreak, and many of the surviving babies affected by it are having added on problems:

I read the "Mother's Story" link near the end, it is heart wrenching.

I read the story, and it's very sickening that vaccines get accused of unproven and impossible horrors when the diseases clearly cause the worst kinds of harms.
If you don't get the MMR vaccine you can get meningitus and encephalitus from the diseases-and ironically that does lead to autism.
Then you get the pregnant moms afflicted with Rubella, and their children are damaged for life from the disease.
Diseases are not harmless.
This all would be called 'scaremongering' among the antivaxxers because they do say that diseases are harmless. They do say their &$#%(#% herbs and homeopathy protect better and 'more naturally' than vaccines.
That is why it is so wonderful when they are debunked for the ignorant *$#&$* liars they are.
Thank you for the links HC!
